Systems running Ubuntu OCI kernel can now use Ksplice to patch against

INSTALLING THE UPDATES

We recommend that all users of Ksplice Uptrack running Ubuntu OCI
kernel install these updates.

On systems that have "autoinstall = yes" in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf,
these updates will be installed automatically and you do not need to
take any action.

Alternatively, you can install these updates by running:

# /usr/sbin/uptrack-upgrade -y

local attacker could use this flaw to cause a denial-of-service or
elevate privileges on the system.
